Anatomy textbooks have a reputation for being dense, turgid tomes with the
stylistic flare of a software instruction manual. So The Concise Handbook of
Human Anatomy by R. M. H. McMinn, R. T. Hutchings and B. M. Logan comes as a
breath of fresh air. Its clear text, photographs and diagrams make perfect sense
of the maze of mushy bits that lurk beneath our skin. Manson Publishing,
£20, ISBN 1874545529.
